It is strongly recommended that everyone who attends the in person edition of Argentina FurFiesta 2023 -regardless if its an attendee, staff, etc- use masks in all convention spaces, have received the vaccine against COVID-19 and have the vaccination schedule up to date on the day of the event.
In the scenario where the Ministry of Health establishes specific measures for hosting massive events, the strict protocol used for the 2022 edition will be back in effect and ticket refunds will not be accepted for this reason.
Finally we ask those who join us in person at this edition, to take care of keeping social distance, use sanitizer and wash their hands thoroughly with frequency.

Some important questions and answers:
Actually this is a question that only you can answer since its strictly personal. There are no wrong answers here.
No. There is an inherent risk in travel as well as in any mass meeting or event. While indoor, vaccinations and masks are effective in reducing the risk of infection and serious illness, there is still some risk of infection. If you feel comfortable or not with that risk, it is a decision that is exclusively in your hands.
Although all our energy and conviction are invested in holding an in person edition of the event this year, it is impossible to predict the future along with the incidence of new variants in the regulatory framework for this type of activity.
The possibility that government agencies limit or prohibit public attendance at massive events in closed spaces is something that can happen, as well as the closure of borders by Argentina.
Traveling or attending an event in this context requires staying constantly informed about the health situation and the changing framework of regulations, which is why we suggest you always seek information from official sources.

Currently this policy IS NOT IN EFFECT (If this situation changes, we will let you know through social media)
We are waiting for a clear outlook regarding the development of the pandemic and a possible second wave. Our commitment remains to hold the in-person event sometime in the second half of 2021.
Currently, most hotels remain closed and all mass events, as well as large congregations of people are prohibited.
Although Argentina moves slowly outside the Mandatory, Preventive, Social Isolation established by the National Government, the hotel, tourism and especially events panorama is uncertain.
With the current degree of uncertainty, it would be premature and unwise to agree with a place and set a date -particularly with the latent risk of repeating a story like the one that occurred with the closure of the Hotel Castelar- The event will occur to the extent that we can guarantee a safe environment with adequate care measures adapted to the “new normal”.
We invite you to reread our statements to learn about the evolution of the pandemic in relation to Argentina FurFiesta.
